<< 2000 2001 2002 >> -------------------- August 31, 2004 Allen Iverson: 2001 NBA Most Valuable Player
Born: June 7, 1975. Hampton, Virginia, USA. College: Georgetown NBA start: First overall pick in 1996 by pholadelphia. Size: Height:6'0" - Weight:165lbs MVP stats: gp:71 - mpg:42.0 - ppg:31.1 - rpg:3.8 - apg:4.6 - fg%:42.0 - ft%:81.4 Team standing: Philadelphia 56-26, first in Atlantic division. Lost to L.A Lakers 4-1 in NBA finals. Comments: With energetic and very supportive team President Pat Croce on board, the Sixers really had more to play for and live up to. The team swept 4 major NBA categorical awards, not including Allen Iverson, who took home the Lion's share with the first team All-NBA selection, the All-Star MVP, the steals champion, the season MVP, and not to mention reviving the art of averaging 30 points per game, which had last been done by Michael Jordan 6 years ago in 1996. In the end though, the Lakers still remained defending champions as they had predicted. -------------------- << 2000 2001 2002 >> Back to MVPs' list Back to NBA almanac |
